Re: [PHP] using fopen() to download remote files

2002-10-03 Thread Marek Kilimajer 

The server never sends you somethink you don't request. Simply get the 
page and there will be no images. If you would want to do the oposite 
you would have much more trouble.

I have written a script in which the main purpose is to download html pages

binary data as this would greatly improve the speed of my script.

I've seen this on the client side with browsers being set to text only mode.
Is there a way to do this with php on the sever side to tell the remote web
server to not download the images associated a particular URL?  I'm running
Red Hat 7.3 and Apache web server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That is what fopen() does anyway ...

... in other words there's nothing that you need do to get this behaviour.
